Just a quick update Gents, the improved version of the VLB should be posted to myself this Monday. I will test it thoroughly and post opinions on this thread.

No problem my friend

Brush is to be shipped tomorrow Gents. Bernd mentioned he completed his first full day of work yesterday so feels he is on the mend. The issues which needed addressing from the last brush, were for it not to fall apart and also for the knot to remain still whilst lathering. It previously rotated slightly. Bernd has fixed both:

"1. The brush can not get in parts anymore. I have found a mechanical solution.
2. I gave the brush four stops for every turn. That should hold the brush when using it very fast."

Look forward to analysing the brush soon!

Sounding good. Look forward to your test.

Yep planning to do a video with the brush, also have a couple of Gents who will test the brush as well.

VLB V.2 arrived today Gents. I have had a little play around with the brush, seems to be much better. Will take it for a spin this evening. I will also try my hardest to shoot a video at some point to give everyone a clear perspective of this unique shaving brush furthermore I will be sending the brush to a few testers so that we have a variety of analytical sources.

Loving this one!! What is the knot? Thought the original 2 band was not available for this brush. If that is the knot we are getting with this brush, I’m all in. Looks like a fan shaped 2 band Manchurian.

It's a standard 2 band fan

Thank you the variable loft takes you from Simpson Manchurian backbone to Omega silvertip soft splay. A chameleon of a brush.
